All lovers love unsuitable people
A Moslem loves a Jew,
A Protestant loves a Catholic
And I’m in love with you.

A Capulet from the home of Verona
Will choose a Montague,
Houseman loved Moses Jackson,
And I’m in love with you.

Noah Coward adored Jack Wilson
Straight as a ruler, too,
And Don Hose loved Carmen,
And I’m in love with you.

Ona loved Chester Colman
Adam loved you know who.
Bohemians all loved Mimi,
And I’m in love with you.

Some Saints loved God only
A funny thing to do,
While Bonny loved Clive Barrow,
But I’m in love with you.

Millions loved Shelly Temple,
What sentimental goo.
In love I’m afraid with a miner
As I’m in love with you.

It’s always unsuitable people
That seem the first of the few,
And that might be the reason
That I’m in love with you.

Perfect love is a phantom,
A dream that won’t come true,
But lots of us are in love with love,
And I’m in love with you.
